A thrilling novel based on real life events. Scott Harrington is a beguiling slave who wields strange power throughout the tiny town of Gulf, North Carolina. Although he is emancipated by law at the age of 17, Scott is forced to face the absolute truth when he discovers that President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation does not deliver the freedom he envisioned. His life is the clash between slavery and freedom; love and hate; Christianity and the taboo practices of witchcraft, voodoo, and roots. He remains entangled in a tumultuous relationship with the Seamore family that owned him until he passes away at the age of 93 in 1939.
